maybe carolina would...no, nevermind.

DLFiend: its more than an issue of talent evaluation--its an issue of return on financial investment. if you draft a headcase and he turns out to be a headcase...you are out your guaranteed seven figures and have a four year cap hit. (EDIT: plus whatever you apportioned them from your rookie compens...

they could also be eyeing a certain high risk, high talent TE that went undrafted. they get him for a league min, prorateable salary if he screws up as opposed to a seven figure guaranteed contract if they draft him.

let's assume 12 team PPR, Q,R,R,W,W,F,TE,D,K i'm hearing a lot about Cooks and Beckham that reminds me of what I heard about Austin last year pre-draft. Without getting into a discussion on the accuracy or inaccuracy of such comparisons, I'm curious what people would pay for TA right now. I'm not di...

yuuuuuup

and i hate Lee. i hate him.

but to have that degree of need and take KB over...i mean, almost anyone, really...is Carolina smart enough to know they now need a WR in the second round, too?

you know I can still see you guys, right?

a GM will admit "the owner made me draft Manziel."

it's two weeks less waiting for the season to start once the draft is done--issue settled.

also: why aren't the Draft Day Truthers talking about how this is obviously just the first step in extending the season by 2 games?

exactly this. I think you have it backwards.

there's an old saying: "trade for need, draft for talent."

you absolutely should not select Mike Evans at 1.01---and that has nothing to do with whether or not you prefer Watkins or Evans as a choice. regardless of where Watkins is in YOUR board, he's atop essentially everyone else's. this means Sammy Watkins has 1.01 value FOR EVERYONE ELSE whether you wan...

it seems like there's still somewhat of a split. how low would the included rookie draft pick get before it would be unanimously opposed? for example, who would still support the trade at Floyd + 1.02? Floyd + 1.03? i don't support it at Floyd + 1.01, but I'm curious to see if supporters are having ...

I expect Floyd to produce better and for longer (given what he's already shown us) than any lottery ticket that has yet to see an NFL down. you could discuss Watkins/Evans but the bust rate for highly talented rookies is still higher than for talented WR2s that are young, healthy, actively producing...

also, is trading draft picks enabled in this draft? i would expect a seasoned dynasty player to look at 1.03/1.04 as chances to trade back and garner value while still pulling off big 6 WRs. I guess what this means is "you are not the Guppy." also--my alarms are going off for owners boltin...
